Mine had a blocked jet, and then after cleaning out, although it would fire up and run on gas when pulled out from between the cupboards, as soon as it was fitted back into place it would not ignite.
Turned out to be a pinhole in the HT ignition cable insulation that managed to line up with an earth point when the cable moved as the fridge was refitted. Overcome by sleeving the HT lead from the electronic ignitor box of tricks, to the ignitor itself.

I assume the ignition switch is flashing and clicking? You're going to Bustypes this weekend aren't you? Could have a quick look then if you want.............
